Filled with primeval testaments of its glorious past, the beautiful land of Turkey is endowed with sceneries that never fail to impress. From the plains of eastern Anatolia to Cappadocia via the Lycian coast and legendary Bosphorus Strait, Turkey boasts many hidden treasures.The city is liberally dotted with amazing ruins of its long and illustrious history.

There are magical views towards Hagia Sophia; once a church, then a mosque and now a museum; the magnificent Byzantine Hippodrome and the mesmerising minarets and domes of the Blue Mosque. But simply exploring the street traffic and observing daily life here are equally absorbing.What more pleasing than entering the extraordinary subterranean world of Cappadocia and taking a close look at its astonishing sherbet-coloured landscape of canyons and fairy chimneys? Buried beneath Cappadocia are some of amazing underground cities built in ancient times to protect the local population from marauding invaders.You won't find cases of exhibits and history text boards in Goreme Open Air Museum, instead, you will scramble around cave churches, discoveringmushroom-shaped fairy chimneys, dwellings of medieval hermits, and admiring glorious Byzantine art.
